In this episode of the Biotech and Breweries Podcast, Tom Kiely, General Manager at Thorn Brewing talks about the process of growing hops and being mindful of the needs of local hop farmers in San Diego. He shares three beers coming out of Thorn Brewing. The Craft Michelada, similar to a Bloody Mary, but lighter in alcohol and body, the And Beyond IPA, the first west coast style IPA the brewery created, and the Orchid Hazy IPA, a bright pale ale with notes of pineapple and mango.
Westbrook Weaver, Founder and CEO of Tempo Therapeutics, shares his journey in bioengineering, Tempo Therapeutics' growth, and his passion for helping others. Founded in 2016, Tempo Therapeutics uses MAP technology to build functional tissue and organs for patients with diseases.
